Hi Sayid,

Thanks for reporting the problems you had with xen-api-rpm-buildroot.

At least for now we rely on specific versions of the files packaged
in ocaml-xenstore-devel.  I've now marked it as conflicting with
xen-ocaml-devel, so yum will refuse to install one if the other is
present and will give a slightly clearer error message.   Of course
this won't help you if you really need xen-ocaml-devel to be installed.
Do you have some other dependency which requires xen-ocaml-devel?

This happened because we had temporarily stopped building xenopsd-libvirt,
but had forgotten to remove the %post directive that installs the init
script.  This shouldn't cause you any problems, but I've updated the
package to put the libvirt subpackage back in, so this error shouldn't 
happen again.

I'm afraid I can't offer you any advice about your storage manager question.

Thanks,
Euan
